Can someone tellme if there are any online instructions that deal with how to navigate the legal process of S.S.D. appeals? Specifically at the Federal level. I have had a bad time with getting competent attorneys and really have no choice but to proceed alone in what amounts to my last...

Yeah, so I proceeded on my own and won. I just don't know what to do next as far as submitting damages. Thanks. Statenislander

The problem is that I've learned that attorneys that specialize in Worker's Comp claims don't usually specialize in Workers Comp discrimination claims. And if I find one that does, it doesn't mean that they take a case on contingency. I thought it odd that the attorney for my Worker's...

I don't know what you mean when you say you don't see a basis for a WC claim. This has to do with a WC discrimination claim. (I already won the WC case back in early 2010). The subsequent WCD case was also recently decided in my favor. And I made several trips to the WC office where I've had my...

I have tried several. I don't know what contingency means, but I can't afford any "flat fee". Thanks to my employer (or should I say "previous" employer) I am on the verge of being homeless. That is why I am searching for a site where I can read up on how to proceed. Thanks. The...

I have a Worker's Compensation Discrimination case that I'm told I need an attorney for, but I cannot afford an attorney. Is there a site that explains the ins and outs of how these things work? I'm out of work and being blackballed by my previous employer. Like the original Worker's...

Going by past responses to other inquiries here, yes. Nevertheless, I found another forum. Thanks. Statenislander

I'm not asking for attorney's advice. If I get that option that will be the next step. This is just a preliminary step for me. Many that post to these forums have issues. Do you go around just telling them all to get an attorney? Statenislander

As stated in my first paragraph, the reason I posted to this forum was to find out if I had any legal recourse for my specific problem. (I assume that is why the forum is here). Statenislander

But I am not seeking a Worker's Compensation claim. I want to get back to work. Thanks. Statenislander

I'm not sure about any legal recourse I might have because I've received conflicting information about this, but my employer has apparently been trying to get me to quit. I'm an armed security officer here in New York and I've worked for my present employer since 2001. I hurt my back while at...
